but mitt romney accepted the nomination to be president of the united states of america without a single word for the more than 80,000 americans who are serving right now in afghanistan. in an attempt to explain why that happened or why everybody should be okay with it, a senior romney campaign aide, my friend, eric fernstrom, argued that mr. romney addressed the war in afghanistan just the day before his convention speech, when he spoke to the american legion in indiana. in that american legion speech, it's true, mr. romney did say two sentences about the war in afghanistan. literally, here's exactly what he said. "we are still at war in afghanistan. we still have uniformed men and women in conflict, risking their lives." that's it. that's the two sentences he uttered the day before his convention speech. and that treatment on the war is why he didn't have anything left to say about our current war the following day when he was accepting the nomination. i guess those two sentences exhausted it for him, pretty much. the day after the republican convention wrapped up, president obama went
